The original topic being how to employ "become laid" in a judgement, and non where information technology'south used, let me try to summarize the few answers that dealt with that:

"Get laid" is non used with a specific person. It but refers to "successfully" having sex - almost as a feat or achievement. As such, it is non concerned with the person whom the sex was had with, only rather just with the fact that the sex was had.

I need to become laid.
I got laid last dark.
He's just out to get laid.

are some examples of the usage of "get laid."

Bear in mind that this expression is nonetheless labelled equally slang. In that context, to categorise a particular example every bit incorrect or ungrammatical seems a bit incongruous.
It depends, of class, on how you define correct and grammatical.
Examples from the OED may help to clarify usage.
1934 J. O'HARA Appointment in Samarra ii. 38 I'm going to accept Teddy out and go him laid tonight.
1936 J. DOS PASSOS Big Money 305 'Gosh,' he was proverb at the back of his head, 'possibly I could lay Elsie Finnegan.'
1969 P. ROTH Portnoy's Complaint 182 All I know is I got laid, twice.
1973 B. BROADFOOT Ten Lost Years viii. 83 The guy who knew her was one of our gang and he was laying her.

Why not just say, "brand dearest?" It loses some of the objectification.

The style you're phrasing it in your examples sounds contrived.
The near natural for me is
"he needs to go laid" or "She needs to get laid"

It's by and large a remark after someone has shown himself to have a "stick up his ass" and needs to calm down or "take a arctic-pill."

The alternative is "get some" instead of "get laid", and I hear that more than in reference to a conquest, which actually happened, with another *real* person.

"He got laid terminal nighttime" is okay, "He got some last dark" is more common or fifty-fifty more natural/ crude "He had a sweet piece of ass last night"

The just 1 that would audio awkward referring to a female person, or using feminine pronouns would be the concluding one.

PS. I'm a female person native AE speaker, non quite 20, and I say stuff like this with my friends, but not people I think would go offended past it.

I'll counterbalance in as an AE native. I find that "get laid" is used almost exclusively past men (at least in my generation), and it is an expression that my mother (born in 1922) would accept been appalled by, but is 1 that I (built-in in 1952) barely notice. Younger AE speakers may want to contradict that. Also, wasn't it your own James Bond who frolicked with a young woman named Pussy Galore?
